Krause
kids share holiday luncheon with
State
Senator Hegar
 KATY,
Texas - Newly elected
State Sen.Glenn Hegar, R-Katy, recently shared a Christmas
lunch with the children of Krause Children's Center
on Dec. 13. The luncheon, underwritten by AT&T
and catered by Fuddruckers, was a hit with the young
residents and staff, who decorated the center with
a banner congratulating Hegar, a longtime volunteer
at Krause, on his recent victory.
"Glenn Hegar is at the forefront
of those new, young, ethical and compassionate members
of the State Senate," said Kurt Senske, chief
executive officer of Lutheran Social Services, which
owns and operates the Krause Center. "But his
greatest attribute in my eyes is how whenever the
residents and staff of Krause ask for his time as
a volunteer, he is there; quietly, humbly and without
fanfare. It's a demonstration of the true love he
has for the children here."
Most recently, Hegar served as
Honorary Chair of the Tomorrow's Child Golf Benefit
which raised more than $94,000 for the children of
the Krause Center.
The Krause Center is a residential psychiatric facility
for children ages 11 to 17 who have severe emotional
and behavioral problems. Most of the children are
referred to the center by Children's Protective Services
and area juvenile probation departments.
